Lovely clean and spacious room with very comfortable bed. Ensuite shower room was very clean and shower was always nice and hot. We booked dinner bed and breakfast and we were glad we did. The food was excellent. The hotel has a lovely atmosphere and there is a well furnished lounge downstairs which is wonderful for relaxing. You are made to feel very welcome and nothing is too much trouble. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return soon.

This delightful family run hotel and restaurant was a real find. Staff were professional, helpful and friendly - nothing was too much trouble. Our room (1) was comfortable and spacious. Public rooms were a treat - very well furnished and equipped. We loved it and wished we were staying for more than two nights.||The restaurant deserves a special mention. Top quality ingredients imaginatively and beautifully prepared with precision cooking. Stand out dishes were the scallops starter and the lamb main. We had the best chateaubriand we have ever eaten - it melted in the mouth and was absolutely flavoursome and delicious. Its accompaniments were of the highest calibre and LOTS of them. ||Breakfasts were similarly top notch with great service.||Make a detour to stay here as well eat here. You will not be disappointed.||We can’t recommend The Rowan Tree highly enough.||Thank you to all the team

I had a truly wonderful stay at the Rowan Tree Country Hotel & Restaurant. The location is stunning — nestled beside a tranquil loch with breathtaking views and peaceful surroundings that make it feel like a true escape from the world. The hotel itself has so much character, blending rustic charm with warm hospitality.

The room was clean, cozy, and well-maintained, with all the comforts I needed. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make me feel welcome. The food at the restaurant was delicious — hearty, freshly prepared, and full of local flavour.

This place is a hidden gem in the Highlands. Whether you're looking to unwind or explore the scenic beauty nearby, I’d absolutely recommend it and would love to come back again!

I stayed at the Rowan Tree Country Hotel for a week with my husband and three autistic teenagers and dog! The accommodation was perfect for us whilst being clean, comfortable and attractive, as we had two rooms opposite each other on their own floor, almost like a suite! We can't recommend the hotel highly enough. It was the first time my children had stayed in a hotel, and it could have been difficult, but the hosts and staff were very understanding and accommodating to their needs. Good wifi, of course, helps with teenagers too! The food was delicious and scenery stunning. This hotel is perfectly positioned for exploring many Scottish sights and walking or just relaxing in the beautiful mountains. We all had an amazing week, seeing dolphins in the Moray Firth, paddle boarding on lochs and doing a boat trip on Loch Ness. Highly recommended.

Stayed at the Rowan Tree for one night while travelling. Fantastic stay and a warm welcome from the hosts. The bedroom was very clean and tidy and the bed was the most comfortable bed of our entire trip. Particularly liked that there are extra tea/coffee/milk set out in the hallway, a lovely touch.|Ate in the restaurant and the food was beautiful. This hotel is a little gem.

Had dinner here after looking for best / fanciest restaurants in Aviemore. Was reserved but wow. Food was absolutely magic. Great service and lovely setting. Will 100% be back for food and will look at accommodation also.

A friendly and comfortable family run hotel with a very pleasant atmosphere and in a wonderful location. The bedroom was clean and functional and bathroom well appointed. The hotel has a spacious comfortable lounge with attentive service and I enjoyed my stay there. I will be very happy to return and recommend the hotel to family and friends.
